Director of Product Management, Analytics - Lead Execution and Product Delivery for Enterprise Analytics & AI Platforms

 

Location: Chicago, IL | Houston, TX | Denver, CO (Hybrid)

Overview

This is a high-impact leadership opportunity for an experienced Director of Product Management to lead the execution and evolution of a portfolio of enterprise analytics products serving the energy and commodities industry.
Reporting directly to the Chief Product & Technology Officer (CPTO), you'll serve as a key partner in translating product vision into execution. This role combines strategic product leadership with a hands-on approach, working closely with Engineering, Data Science, Architecture, Sales, and Customer Success to deliver innovative B2B SaaS solutions that create measurable customer value.
This is not a traditional executive product leadership position. We're looking for a product leader who enjoys getting close to execution, removing obstacles, aligning cross-functional teams, and ensuring critical initiatives move efficiently from roadmap to delivery. You'll be equally comfortable discussing long-term product strategy with executives and rolling up your sleeves to drive day-to-day execution.

What You Will Be Doing

• Own the execution and delivery of the enterprise analytics product portfolio from roadmap through customer adoption.
• Partner closely with the CPTO to translate strategic vision into measurable product execution across multiple product lines.
• Drive product initiatives from concept through delivery by removing obstacles, aligning stakeholders, and maintaining execution momentum.
• Balance long-term product strategy with day-to-day execution, ensuring roadmap commitments are delivered successfully.
• Lead and develop Product Managers while fostering strong collaboration across Engineering, Data Science, Architecture, Design, Sales, Customer Success, and Marketing.
• Engage directly with enterprise customers throughout discovery, design validation, product demonstrations, and strategic initiatives.
• Partner closely with commercial teams to support go-to-market strategy, product launches, customer expansion, and strategic opportunities.
• Champion AI-enabled analytics capabilities and identify opportunities to create differentiated customer value.
• Continuously improve product management practices, roadmap discipline, prioritization, and cross-functional execution.
• Represent Product leadership with executive stakeholders while remaining closely connected to delivery teams.

What Success Looks Like

• Translate product strategy into consistent execution across multiple analytics products.
• Build strong alignment between Product, Engineering, Data Science, and commercial teams.
• Deliver AI-enabled analytics capabilities that improve customer outcomes.
• Increase customer adoption while supporting revenue growth.
• Build and develop a high-performing Product organization.
• Become a trusted operational partner to the CPTO, helping drive execution across the organization.

What You Must Have

• 10+ years of Product Management experience, including leadership of enterprise B2B SaaS analytics or data products.
• Proven success owning products from strategy through execution, commercialization, customer adoption, and ongoing delivery.
• Experience leading Product Managers and multidisciplinary teams across Product, Engineering, Data Science, and Design.
• Demonstrated ability to balance strategic leadership with hands-on execution in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
• A proven track record delivering complex enterprise software within cross-functional organizations.

• Experience integrating products following acquisitions or platform consolidation.
• Experience supporting enterprise sales, strategic customer engagements, and go-to-market initiatives.
• Background with ETRM/CTRM platforms, quantitative modelling, market data, or cloud-native analytics platforms.

Who You Are

• You enjoy building products but love delivering them even more.
• You're equally comfortable thinking strategically and executing tactically.
• You don't wait for perfect information before making decisions.
• You thrive in fast-moving environments where priorities evolve.
• You naturally remove blockers and keep teams moving forward.
• You're as comfortable reviewing delivery plans as presenting product strategy to executive leadership.
• You lead through influence, ownership, and execution rather than hierarchy.
